Some Time in Glory

Some Time in Glory

Some time in glory,
We will meet those who have been,
With those who are to be,
And learn why we were.

Some time in glory,
We will hear the cries of our actions,
And the sighs of our dreams.

Some time in glory,
We will see our fears as pebbles,
And our hopes as worlds.

All we did will be measured,
Against all we could have done.
We will feel the space between,
Some time in glory.

    "We will see our fears as pebbles,
    And our hopes as worlds."

    Grand imagery --and I can't wait.
